Sorrow: My dad officially filed for divorce again, and there's nothing that can stop it but him changing his mind, which he refuses to do...Sorrow: My love interest is doing a really awful job at giving a crap about sympathy. I think that's over too, now...

I'm so sorry to hear both those things! *holds you* At least you have your health and friends. Yer gonna be fine, I promise. I can't wave my arms and take away the pain, but will do everything I can to help alleviate it.

You have my sympathies. My parents divorced when I was three, so I grew up thinking that the arrangement was normal. I can only imagine what you must be going through, having gone through it twice, and of an age you were truly cognizant of what was happening.

And you deserve some one who is more emotionally supportive. If your significant other does not change their tune perhaps you should move on.

There is nothing worse than being on your own in a trying time.

Well, its happened. I had a confrontation with my racist co-worker and it landed us both in the supervisors office. I pleaded my case and reiterated all of the activities that that made him hard to work with, but as is typically of this place nothing is going to get done about it. It just made us both look bad, and he has no problem looking bad. Actually, he tried to take the moral high road in an attempt to make me look even worse.

I talked to the supervisor after ward and he said that he could move me to another section if I wanted. I jumped at the chance. He said he was going to see if he anything was available, but I have already applied for work elsewhere in other departments. I am not going to quit. He is not going to drive me off. I am going to stay where I am, having an extra wall between us is going to make it more bearable.

Sounds like things have gotten better than before. This seems more to your liking than those essay questions. Hope you get more assignments like that!

Thanks for the kind words. I am now going to be on the opposite end of the room from him. Let him offend other people and see how long he lasts.

I am glad that things worked out with your paper. If you ever need help with your assignments, just ask us here. I am more than willing to help and I am sure that others might have the expertise that you need.

Re: Joys And Sorrows

Joy: apparently I'm making a good impression at work. I can't fathom why, I don't work particularly hard and I'm not that good at my job. I guess I'll just chalk it up to my devilishly good looks and charming disposition . But for whatever reason my various supervisors seem to like me.

Joy: Holy carp Waka Flocka and Tyler the Creator finally did a track together. The amount of fanboy realted joy I feel right now is just...wow!

Sorrow: Today my email account at hotmail got hacked. I got it corrected but it cost me $109. I seriously hope that they did not hack my bank account because I use that email to buy stuff from Amazon. If they have me credit card number I am going to lose my mind!

Joy: My new job since I moved to another unit at work is probably the easiest thing I have ever done and gotten paid for!

Joy: I just re-arranged my dorm room. The beds are now bunk beds. There is so much more room for activities.

Did that cost extra? Some dorms charge for the stuff to keep beds bunked.

No, both the head board and foot boards of the beds have these spoke type things on the tops and indentions that fit the spokes on the bottom, so they can stack up on each other. Tyler and I didn't have to get Resident's Life to do that though, we made the room ourselves

Joy: Code Lyoko is on Netflix.*scrolls down*So are all seasons of Everybody Loves Raymond and Frasier.

*4 years later*Because of Netflix, I failed college.

LuLz that's actually really funny. I don't like USC for the school, only for football and baseball.

Also, there are only 16 college in USA that are nationally accredited in all of its majors, and Winthrop is one of them, so FACE!!!!*shot*
